Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. offers advice for a successful Gilbert AZ IRS audit

Gilbert AZ IRS Audit

  • When you have answered an Auditors question—shut up.  Auditors know that taxpayers are uncomfortable with “silence.”  Remember the one who talks first after you have answered the question LOSES.  That may sound a bit blunt to put it in these words but it is critical to a successful Gilbert AZ IRS audit.
  • Remember the Auditor is not your friend.  They are aggressive bill collectors no matter how friendly they may sound in your meeting.  When you get the bill from the auditor you will realize that they are masters at making you feel they are on your side.
  • Never miss an appointment and respond promptly if you cannot meet a deadline.
  • Never get mad or angry.  They IRS auditor will usually stop asking questions at that point and assume you are not cooperating and deny deductions or expenses that you are entitled too.
  • Don’t be too anxious to pay the bill.  You have rights to Appeal the IRS audit assessment.  Almost never go to Appeals alone.  You need a professional to make sure you don’t fail a second time.
